Any school, civic orgapization or group in Barnwell County that may be interested in reducing the mount ing toll of auto accidents may upon request to A. W. Bohlen, director of the safety division of the State high way department, obtain a showing of the film, “A Challenge to Chnace,” which Burgess Bultman, highway pa trolman, is exhibiting over the State. The picture is a talking picture and Patrolman Bultman has all necessary equipment so that the film may be shown wherever there is electric cur rent. There is, of course, no charge. Depicting* the causes of accidents, the film goes on to show some of the possible remedies, rational highway planning, education of drivers and pedestrians, etc. The picture is especially timely, in that the greatest death toll of all time has been run up this year. In the first 10 months of 1936, 298 per sons were killed on South Carolina highways, compared to 228 for the identical period in 1935, an increase of almost one-fourth.

Metz, who reported for duty with this camp in June of this year, and who was stationed at the aide camp at Walterboro most of his tour of duty, left Friday, December 6th. Lieut. Metz was popular with the boys, officers and foresters and will be much missed. Lieut. Met* left Friday for Char leston and other point* in the State, and will probably settle in North Carolina, where one of hie brothers is engaged in the fertiliser business. First Lieut. H. L. Blitch. reported for duty with this company Inst Tues day. Lieut. Blitch is from Atlanta, and he has already completed two tours of duty in the CCC. The first was in District “E“ and he was sta tioned in Louisiana and Mississippi. His second tour was in District “BB“, and he was stationed in South Caro lina and Georgia. After sU 'ing s^ Barnwell two or three days, he re ported to the side camp at Waiter- boro to take charge down there. In a game of basketball played on Thursdty, Dec. 3rd, which was inter esting throughout, though the result was hardly ever in doubt, the camp boys defeated Blackville High School 33-20. The game was played in the Blackville High School gym. The camp boys were simply too tug for the Blackville boys, who did their best in spite of being handicapped by being about half the *i& of the camp players. For the Blackville team, Cook, at center, was the star. Honors for the camp were about even be tween Bass, who shot the most points, and Potter, who handled the ball most of the time. Teal, at center, playing for the first time in two weeks, also showed up well. On the other posi tions Drawdy, Guerry, Bailey, Frick, Waldrop, Cole and Baxley all had a chance^ and it is still doubtful who will be the regulars. Fred Gray could not play because of a hurt wrist. Edisto Island did not show up for its game scheduled for Saturday, De cember 5, so Barnwell automatically wins another one. * This is the second time this has happened. Georgetown was supposed to play here on November 28, and they sent word that they could not come. Nothing was heard from Edisto Is land. They just didn’t show up. The team from Fort Moultrie is scheduled to play here Saturday, Dec. 12th. Arrangements for the game have' not been completed at this writ ing, but we hope the game will be played in the Blackville gym about eight o’clock at night. The game may be played on the new court the Barnwell High School has fixed up on one of the Atlantic Coast Line platforms, and if it is we will have some signs out to advertise it. Mr. Nevils is moving a camp from Cleveland to Parris Mountain, and truck drivers Sam Ellison and Boyn ton Manuel are with him. They will probably be gone the remainder of this week. ADVERTISE iu Th*
